Accepting submissions
Unlike traditional scholarly journals, the Journal of Reflective Inquiry (JORI) seeks articles that reflect on the research process rather than the end-product. Although disciplinary topics may vary widely, all articles should demonstrate thoughtfulness about research and intellectual inquiry. Articles may be the products of classes, independent study, supervised research, honors theses, etc. Learn more here. |
